ERockson:
We can name brave Yoruba men like Wole Soyinka, Tai Solarin, Tnubu, Fela, FFK, Fayose etc Can Ibo name any anybody dead or alive in their land that can match the bravery of these people? It cannot be Kanu for now until we see more of him

vislabraye:


There was really no need for the civil war if you look at it critically. Just as you said, Ojukwu had too many enemies. Why fight a battle you have no chance of winning ?
People going to battle field with only 5 bullets and you expect to win . Some Igbos are still nursing the pain of the civil war.

SalamRushdie:
We can't also forget Lt Col Fajuyi who a had all the opportunity to abandon his Igbo guest but bravely decided to die with him , of recent we cant forget the case of Olisa Metuh and Fani Kayode who both started out as great critics of the Buhari govt but immediately after their first rounds of incarceration Olisa Metuh has cowardly gone dumb while FFK despite many arrest is still blowing fire and brimstone against the Buhari govt

Michel2013:




there is no proven evidence that hitler killed himself or if u have it bring it on. moreover the worst act of cowardliness is suicide. it is a short cut to avoid unpleasant situation. but if u believe that suicide is bravery kindly teach your children various kinds of suicide ok.

Carry your wahala go face ipob youths. I no join.

See Afonja pushing the like button like their life depend on it.

Reno cannot dictate to us how we should view Others, but the action of Others will enforce our views of dem.

With all the evidence on ground, Yoruba are cowards, and will always remain cowards.

I mean, their Fada is a rat poison drinking coward.

BuariCopyPaste:
As long as Kwara a hitherto Yoruba land remains the Fulani property, cowardice is spelled out.

Abiola saga, Awolowo's shameful suicide, Ogundipe fleeing to London even when not threatened, the other general crying and begging a subordinate to spare him, Mile12 saga, Hausa and Yoruba olotun beans sellers clash in Osun... ..etc

I have many reasons to call them bloody cowards...

Olu317:
I guess as much. The word “wahala " is alien to my school of thought. So, take it away from your heart .I reacted to your Jewish tag to this thread which is off track. And I chose to use this opportunity to correct your view. If you are a scholar, then you don't quote one person(controversial author) on wiki, whose opinion doesn't hold water. There are Archeological facts that support the Jewish history and the Bible. And if you are a Yoruba, it is imperative to defend Yoruba Identity and not antagonise JEWS. PERIOD.

Cheers.

How then your warriors lose Kwara to the Fulanis abi dem dey prepare for a re-match

Mujtahida:

I guess you just latched on to my post without reading the person I was replying to. Someone posted that Igbos are good with propaganda like the Jews and I responded with what you read. Only for you to decontextualize my response. And who told you I quoted a scholar from wiki? Arthur na author in your mind abi? Kini ee leyi? Stop making assumptions. Fi mi le(I guess this one is not alien). Carry your kasala dey go baba Archaeologist. And I hope you are not in your PERIOD? (lol)

Olu317:
I did read it. No hard feeling.
Cheers

U can't win every battle, even Hitler lost
Dindinrin, not only Ilorin is in Kwara State...there are other real Yoruba towns with their Obas...Offa, Ijagbo, Omu Aran, Omupo, Ajase, Igbaja to mention but few

AkureOyemekun:



Lwkmd!!

loool. wtf is nsala anyway?

ipodstinks:
How do you expect those that eat something as disgusting as this to think before? You can't differentiate the barbaric soup from human poo. So don't expect them to reason like normal human. They must reason like aliens.

lexy2014:
so what's d true account of what happened between fajuyi, ironsi and their killers that fateful day?

Mujtahida:

Ese. Not Yoruba sha

SirShymexx:
Interesting read.

He's right. Like I've been saying since I joined NL: I've NEVER met a brave Igbo guy and I've a few Igbo friends. Yes, I do know a couple of aggressive ones who can chat shitt and later apologise when they can't hack it. But bravery and Igbos, based on my experience, are two parallel lines that should never meet. However, conversely, Yorubas and Edos who talk the talk always walk it. The Yorubas who can't walk it, most times will never talk it to your face.

Then again, Igbos naturally are funny people and I'd give them props for being the biggest propagandists in the world. Igbos have an uncanny ability where they use propaganda to create a narrative that will look like the truth after a while. The same people who created the narrative that Yorubas are cowards and fictitious Igbo bravery, are the ones who created the narrative that Igbos are naturally light skinned and they're the most beautiful/educated/gifted Nigerians. They are also the ones who created a narrative of Igbos being civilised in pre-colonial Nigeria, when the reality is that they were mostly slaves and savages living in the forest. You just have to give the Nigerian Jews props for copying the modern day fake Jews in Israel to a T when it comes to lies and propaganda.

The fact that most people of Nigerian descent who dominate contact sports like Boxing and MMA are Yorubas should tell you all you need to know. No coward would go into a boxing ring or the octagon.

Omeny:


Why didn't Yoruba fight a brutal civil war like the Igbos did where they were out-number both in man-power and machinery and let's see who will remain as a Yoruba man?

Don't reason through ur ass man!

DerideGull:


One Brigadier was shaking in his boots because Ahmadu Bello coughed. Also one Lt Col killed many Tiv men because Ahmadu Bello wished. But one young Maj. told Ahmadu Bello to kiss his ass when Ahmado Bello wanted him to arrest Tiv instead of NPC supporters (Hausa and Fulani) who were the main culprit of the so-called 1964 Tiv riot. This is a classical show of bravery by an Igbo chap.

LordOfNaira:


The only target that fought back during the Jan 1966 coup was a Yoruba man, SLK Akintola.

evilyoruba:
Ojukwu has right to run away because he he was fighting on multiple fronts....no Yoruba dead or alive can fight on just 2 fronts....but as for zik, his greedy to preserve his name took a better part of him

Obasanjo was just up against abacha, but ojukwu was up against both Yoruba, Hausa Fulani's and minorities, then, British the true owner of Nigeria.... Ojukwu was fighting war where his people were been killed ....There is no comparison between Obj and ojukwu situation, neither is there a comparison between awo and zik situation... Diabolical suffercated yorubas always find way to twist everything...

wizzlyd:
still better than this

DerideGull:


SLK Akintola did not fight back, he simply committed suicide.
